About Us


From an early breakfast to late dinner; a cappuccino with fresh-baked croissants to a five-course feast of fish in an award-winning seafood restaurant – and in between an informal, brasserie-style lunch with wine for just £10: Goodfellows offers a quality and variety of eating experience on one site almost unparalleled outside London.

And what a site. Goodfellows is in the historic heart of Wells, a step from the famous Gothic cathedral. You can look in for tea and truffles or a tarte chocolate from our selection of patisseries; linger over a Cassoulet in our Sadler Street Café – or make an event of lunch or dinner at Goodfellows itself, the fish restaurant named after chef and owner Adam Fellows.

Reviews describe the food as art, the setting pure theatre, with tables arranged round an open kitchen. Adam combines his love of fresh West Country produce with a passion for fish and the flavours of Mediterranean cuisine, learned from an apprenticeship in some of the greatest kitchens in Europe.

Adam has already achieved two red AA rosettes and placed on three occasions in The Times’ Top 10 Restaurants. Goodfellows scores highly in the Good Food Guide and was its Somerset Restaurant of the Year in 2006. It won Best Restaurant in this year’s inaugural Taste of Somerset Awards.

Britains's Finest Restaurants


" This is a case of what you see is not what you get, the restaurant is unassuming and simple in decor, but the food is outstanding, and far outshines some of the flashier and more well known eateries, both locally and I would say in London too. Having eaten out in London a great deal, I love coming back to Goodfellows for the way respect is paid to the integrity of the ingredients. It should have a Michelin star - Top place! "
